2009 Var­sity Foot­ball High­light Reel

Galileo Var­sity Foot­ball high­light reel for 2009 season.

Galileo Var­sity Foot­ball is back on top of the AAA with the senior class (2010), who won the 2007 Frosh/Soph cham­pi­onship, lead­ing the way in a sur­pris­ing 9–3 (8–1) fin­ish that cap­tured the city crown by derail­ing 4peat champ, Lin­coln 35–0 in the Turkey Day Cham­pi­onship Game. Win­less a sea­son ago, this year’s cham­pi­onship team fea­tured a stel­lar offense (that had per-game aver­ages of 30+ points, 353 total yards, 300 yards on the ground, 7 yards per carry) and a stingy defense (3 shutouts). Galileo nota­bles: #13 Dylan Nelson-QB/P/K (AAA Player of the Year), #5 Quincy Nelson-RB/FS (AAARB of the Year), #54 Shaun Numera-MLB/DT (AAA Defen­sive Player of the Year, First Team All-City (#44 Pat Ale-FB, #24 Paul Hill-LB, #8 Chuck Jones-LB, #56 Jovesa Cakau-DE, #32 Waynelle Buckner-CB). Video nota­bles: #2 Erik Wil­son with 3 amaz­ing catches (1 at Berean, 2 in T-Day), Buck­ner, Q. Nel­son & Hill with a pick6 each, at 12:38 Q. Nel­son leaps a defender, at 10:08 Chuck Jones puts the game out of reach with a TD run at Low­ell, at 14:05 Q. Nel­son demon­strates more than speed and power-he throws in the “spin cycle”.

Other cred­its: writ­ten and FX by Coach Mark, pho­tog­ra­phy by pho­tog­ra­phy teacher, Mr. Schnitzer and photo stu­dent, Dustin Andrick.

2007 Frosh/Soph Foot­ball High­light Reel

Dylan Nel­son matures into the QB posi­tion as he leads the young lions to a 5–1 AAA Frosh/Soph Cham­pi­onship. Jesse Armas and Sam Hong put together a 1–2 punch on the ground with full­backs, Chuck Jones and Fran­cisco Rodriguez clear­ing the way. Fresh­man sen­sa­tion, Quincy Nel­son arrives 4 games into the sea­son, tak­ing a reverse into the end­zone against Bal­boa with his first carry. Shaun Numera becomes Nelson’s favorite tar­get at tigh­t­end with wide-out Andrew Huang. Numera and Jones also dou­bles as line­back­ers. Other nota­bles: Pat Ale at defen­sive end and full back.

2005 Frosh/Soph Foot­ball High­light Reel

Javohn Cherry takes over for Huang to out­gun the Triple-A frosh/soph divi­sion with sopho­more receiver Anthony Lay­ton (#5) and fresh­man sen­sa­tion, Tyler Nel­son (#81). Jackie Phung (#44) chewed up yardage with his spin moves and Askari Wooten (#9) com­pleted the ground game at full­back. Wooten also filled the mid­dle line­backer void and reg­is­tered the “hit­stick of the year” as seen at the end of the video. Other nota­bles: Jor­dan Luse (#9 then #84) at defen­sive end was a run-stopper. David Chan (#80) took a few end-arounds to the house and also made a record inter­cep­tion returned 101 yards for a touch­down. Robert Moy (#48) gets his own spot­light as spe­cial teams player of the year and Kent Wang (#34) makes a game-saving tackle at 8:32 right after the dude loses his shoe. This squad didn’t know bet­ter, they just loved to hit…and jump on piles. Nar­rowly miss­ing the cham­pi­onship, these young lions took home a 4–2 sec­ond place finish.
